Sovereign Grace Music - Nada en la tierra Lyrics
Lyrics
VERSO 1
¿Qué puede separarnos de tu amor?
¿Podrá romperlo prueba o aflicción?
¿Podrá acusarnos la condenación
Contra el perdón que tu sangre nos dio?
PRE-CORO
Y aunque el viaje largo es
Yo triunfante cantaré
CORO
//Nada en la tierra o en las alturas
Podrá arrancarnos de tu eterno amor, Señor//
VERSO 2
¿Qué puede separarnos de tu amor?
Venciste Tú la muerte y su aguijón
Y a tus pies caerá todo poder
Pues Tú gobiernas todo, eres Rey
PUENTE
¡Nada en la tierra, oh no!
Podrá arrancarnos de
Tu eterno amor, Señor

Meaning & Inspiration
Sovereign Grace Music, renowned for crafting biblically rich worship songs, delivered a profound message of unshakeable faith with "Nada en la tierra," released on January 1, 2014, as part of their album *La Salvación es del Señor*. This song serves as a powerful declaration, rooted deeply in the New Testament's assurances, inviting those who hear it to grasp the immovable certainty of God’s love in Christ. It addresses the universal human anxieties about suffering, condemnation, and the challenges of a long spiritual journey, offering a resolute, scriptural answer to each.
The essence of "Nada en la tierra" draws its very breath from the triumphant declarations of Romans 8, particularly verses 35-39, which famously ask, "Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?" The opening verse of the song directly echoes this challenge, posing poignant questions: "What can separate us from Your love? Can trial or affliction break it? Can condemnation accuse us against the forgiveness Your blood gave us?" This is not merely a lyrical question but a theological bedrock, reminding us that no earthly tribulation, no personal suffering, and certainly no lingering guilt can undo the perfect and complete pardon offered through the sacrifice of Jesus. Paul’s letter to the Romans boldly asserts that it is God who justifies; therefore, no one can condemn. Christ Jesus Himself, who died and rose again and now intercedes for believers, is the ultimate guarantor of this unbreakable bond. This understanding of grace through Christ’s atoning blood (Ephesians 1:7) is foundational to our peace and assurance.
As the pre-chorus unfolds, the song acknowledges the realities of life’s difficulties, stating, "And though the journey is long, I will sing triumphantly." This short, potent line encapsulates the spirit of Christian perseverance, a theme often echoed in Scripture. It reflects the truth that while trials are inevitable, as expressed in James 1:2-4, our response is not despair but a triumphant hope that flows from God’s sustaining power (2 Corinthians 4:16). The anticipation of victory, even in the midst of struggle, is a hallmark of faith, knowing that Christ has already overcome the world (John 16:33).
The chorus then crescendos into the song's central, unwavering affirmation: "Nothing on earth or in the heights can tear us from Your eternal love, Lord." This is a direct, emphatic reaffirmation of Romans 8:38-39, where neither death nor life, angels nor rulers, things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, can separate us from God's love in Christ Jesus. It speaks to the omnipotence and omnipresence of God's love, stretching beyond all perceivable dimensions and temporal limits. It’s an "eternal love," as Jeremiah 31:3 proclaims, a love that existed before time and will endure forever, providing an anchor for the soul that is both steadfast and sure (Hebrews 6:19).
Verse 2 further solidifies this message by pointing to Christ’s ultimate victory and sovereignty: "What can separate us from Your love? You conquered death and its sting, and at Your feet every power will fall, for You govern everything, You are King." This stanza powerfully references Christ’s triumph over death as described in 1 Corinthians 15:55-57, where death's sting is removed by His resurrection. The lyrics celebrate Jesus's supreme authority, reminding us that "every knee will bow, of those in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord" (Philippians 2:10-11). Because Christ is sovereign over all creation and all powers (Colossians 1:16-17), His love for His own is unassailable. His reign ensures that His promises are steadfast, making separation from His love an impossibility. The bridge reiterates this with a final, declarative cry, "Nothing on earth, oh no! Can tear us from Your eternal love, Lord," reinforcing the profound, comforting truth that our salvation and security rest entirely in His unwavering grip. "Nada en la tierra" is more than a song; it is a profound theological meditation, an encouraging sermon set to music, designed to root believers firmly in the glorious truth of God's unfailing, eternal love.
